Hi there LG fans. Didn’t post last night as I nodded off really early in all my clothes and what’s left of my glasses. Didn’t miss much from yesterday really - Paul came over & we did a bit of writing (we’re trying to put together some animation shorts). Nobody notices my black eye when i am wearing my glasses, so I have taken to removing my glasses alot - you know, cleaning them, checking the glue is OK - then people ask. I’ll miss my black eye when it’s gone.
I am going camping on thursday which means NO BLOG while I am there! I will be keeping a sketchbook & photo blog & I’ll upload it when I get back on sunday. It is going to be FREEZING, I don’t really have any warm clothes :-/ if anyone has any suggestions for good cold weather camping gear please let me know - thanks

The solution is simple! Wear ALL your clothes at the same time. Many layers wins!
Alternatively there’s an Army surplus place on Kilburn High St which should be cheap and if its ok for the army its probably ok for anyone
I recommend that you wear EVERYTHING you packed at night…including two pairs of gloves and a wooly hat. Last time I camped in March I barely slept the first night because I was so cold. The second night was better after I went out and bought a Nalgene bottle that I could fill with hot water and keep in my sleeping bag at night. But any old hot water bottle would do — naturally.
Enjoy your trip!

Not cheap, but when I went to the arctic I bought some merinho wool underwear - top and full length leggins - from Rohan - they’re brilliant - and now that i live in the countryside in a house with no heating, they serve well as pyjamas too. I’m sure M&S do something similar - well worth it, I think. Have fun.
I second the motion on wearing layers — it really is the best thing. Two or three shirts, a sweatshirt, and a jacket. And it would hurt to wear long johns or biking pants under your jeans. And a hat and gloves.
I would sometimes put a brick in the campfire to get it nice and toasty, and then wrap it in a towel and put it in the foot of my sleeping bag when I went to bed. It helps a lot, but make sure you wrap it good so it doesn’t burn your bag.
So if you’re going camping, does that mean you won’t be doing the web comic thing in mile end?
Yes I will be, i almost forgot about it.
how did you get a black eye??
I don’t even know !
